Facing Drug Charges? Contact a New York Criminal Defense Lawyer

The defense strategy that a lawyer at our firm may utilize will vary depending on your case. However, unlawful search and seizures are often grounds to have key evidence excluded in drug crime cases. Law enforcement may conduct a search of you or your property without having a valid warrant or probable cause to perform the search. The evidence obtained under these circumstances should not be able to be used as direct evidence against you, the defendant. A criminal defense attorney can fight to help ensure your rights are protected in this regard.
